David Faber, Sara Eisen and Mike Santoli began with the market action a day after the Federal Reserve announced its 9th straight interest rate hike of 25 basis points. In his press conference, Chair Powell said the recent failure of some regional banks could cause ripple effects that slow down the economy. The anchors also turned their attention to TikTok, as the company CEO Shou Zi Chew made his way to Capitol Hill to testify before Congress about his app’s security concerns. Also in the mix: The anchors hit the double-digit drop of in shares of Block, after Hindenburg Research announced that the payment company was its latest short position, alleging that Block allowed criminal activity to operate with lax controls and “highly” inflates Cash App’s transacting user base, a key metric of performance.
